[Q] Best Cyanogenmod 11 Phone for a Verizon Mac user - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm a big fan of cyanogenmod as I have it on my tablets. I currently have a SG3 but it's not rooted/running cyanogenmod because in reading the how-to guide I'm too much of a novice to do it, plus I only have mac's.
So I'm curious if someone can suggest a phone similar to form and function of the Galaxy S3 that I can use on verizon's 4G network, that is easier/safer to put cyanogenmod on it.
Thanks!

[Q] GSM Phone calling in Samsung Galaxy 10.1

Dear All,
I was going through the forums for enabling the GSM Phone calling option in Samsung Galaxy 10.1. So far, I can see several posts on that requirement but can see no one cracked the same yet.
If this feature is enabled this tab is really the best one. I loved using this tab and every program works very smooth in this.
Appreciate developers can crack this soon...

[Q] Which rom

Gday friends,
Ive just bought a 10.1 as i dropped my 10.1v and it now has a line down the middle needless to say this is unacceptable so i bought the new one.
So im after advice as to which rom you would recommend for my 10.1 3g.
I was looking at Tasks rom but its only wifi which is a shame.
I gather i am unable to run a 10.1v rom on my tab?
any suggestion would be welcomed.
Thanks
Overcome rom
seems like the only option at this stage.
Overcome rom
We shall overcome Rom
As I am very close to rooting/ROMing, what are the main differences between Task and Overcome?
I've read the feature lists, but honestly, it all just blurs together and my eyes gloss over. (I've done so much reading on both 10.1 ROMs and Epic 4G Touch ROMs that my brain has melted down.)
Thanks for input.
t-mobile
Hey everyone,
I have a t-mobile galaxy tab 10.1 Model SGH-t859. Anyone know if the overcome rom will work with it?
It's listed for the p75xx but I'm not sure if I can run that on my device.

[Q] Fastest Motorola Dext/Cliq Rom?

Hello everyone, I'd really like to know which one is the fastest rom for my Motorola Dext/Cliq.
I know it isn't the greatest Android phone of the market but here in Venezuela all the carriers are fall in love with Blackberrys, forgetting the Android and Apple clients.
I'm using CyanogenMod 7.1 but the lag is horrible and the phone can't be enyoiable.
Thanks!
You could try some from here: http://modmymobile.com/forums/548-motorola-cliq-roms/.
Only you will be able to tell what rom runs the fastest on your device. Try the ones available and make up your own mind.

motorola photon 4g(running custom roms) or samsung galaxy s2

um.. sorry if this has been asked alot of times but i didnt find any answers to my question.
So is a rooted fully unlocked running the best custom rom (i can chose any rom i want) and all the mods n tweaks motorola photon 4g better or is the stock samsung galaxy s2 better?? (i wont be tampering with the s2 because its got warranty here in india unlike the photon).
My college buddy saw my photon 4g (im running cna rom (ics) with all the mods) and he actually offered me his samsung galaxy s2 in exchange for my phone so should i exchange it or not?
And one more question has anyone from india tried the 3g speed hack settings on the latest roms?

If you plan on keeping the s2 at stock, then stick with the photon. If you really enjoy having a good selection of custom roms and kernels then go with the s2. But honestly, having a buttload of roms is overrated because at a certain point they are all reiterations of one another with certain mods added (that can easily be done by an end user) on top of official cm, aokp, cna, aosp, etc builds. We have all of these (except aosp), which is more than enough for any flashaholic. Also, take into consideration that the drivers we have been anticipating for so long are about to drop into our laps, making our 4.x builds near flawless. All things considered, mixed with the superior hardware and build quality of the photon, i would stick where you are at. If after we get the official ics upgrade with kernel and drivers you still arnt completely satisfied with the phone and the roms we have, then consider such a trade. But things are about to get really interesting up in here when that release drops, stick around and enjoy the show.
OK.. I'll stick with the photon I guess then I actually like the build of photon better than s2 the only reason I considered his offer was because s2 costs a lot more than photon here on eBay so I thought I could exchange sell profit buy another photon .
Oh so we're getting the official ics for photon hmm.. the thing I hate about Motorola Is they suck at UI design. I hope the official pics release will be good looking and not laggy like the stock ginger bread

What should I do now?

I bought my Galaxy S5 a couple of months ago and I still have this S2. I'm really not sure what to do with this phone. Not gonna sell it away because it is an awesome phone.
But here I'm planning: (I'm sure there are a lot of people like me, not sure what to do with their old S2 now.)
- build a media center.
But this requires sammy ROM so it could be connected to the TV using HDMI.
- try out new ROMs.
Yeah awesome idea.
- use it as an IP Camera.
- use it as an "iPod"
I have some questions regarding these choices.
1) shall I stick to sammy jellybean or upgrade to KitKat? I'm currently using kikat on this S2 but I would like to use it on the TV
2) will it have any problems if I let my S2 stick on he charger 24/7? If only I would like to use it as an IP camera. Will it have any effects on the battery/motherboard?
I hope fellow S2 members can discuss all this here. Thanks!

I am not an s2 user anymore for 1,5 years but.
1) you can stick to jellybean stock if you want it for your tv but I suggest to use a custom rom based on stock jellybean, look in the dev forums there are a couple of it.
2) I am not sure or you will have any problems but just like on a laptop and other devices its not good to let a battery charge for 24/7 so google it for sure for your own safety/phone life.
I also hope for you that other s2 member are going to discuss here with you
I dont see the point to stay on kitkat if you already have the s5. So I suggest to downgrade to an custom stock base rom since it would be also probably more bug free.
I really recommend using a custom stock rom such as neatrom for pure stability. If you prefer a little extra performance (and some new features), go with a kitkat rom such as cyanogenmod or paranoid android (and the list can go for ages).
I decided to go with JB NeatROM. Thanks for the advice guys! I find it more stable and faster as compared to KitKat. (Probably because I didn't use JB for months)
